Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

- 5x + 8 = 18

Take + 8 to the right hand side, it turns negative i.e -8

-5x = 18 - 8

-5x = 10

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is -5

-5x/5 = 10/-5

x = -2

The population of a town doubled every 5 years from 1960 to 1975. What is the percentage increase in population in this period ?

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the population

in 1965 → the population becomes 2p

in 1970 → the population becomes 2(2p) = 4p

in 1975 → the population becomes 2(4p) = 8p

p ——————> 100%

8p ————-—-> x%

then

$x=\frac{8p*100}{p}=800$

Please help me I honestly have zero clue how to answer this question

Iteru [2.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

$n = 3 \times 5 {}^{2} \times {x}^{3}$

Square both sides of the equation.

${n}^{2} = (3 {}^{2} \times 5 {}^{4} \times {x}^{6} )$

$5 {n}^{2} = 5(3 {}^{2} \times {5}^{4} \times {x}^{6} )$
